Overview of Prequel

Maddow's "Prequel" uncovers America's forgotten fascist movement of the 1930s-40s. Based on her #1 podcast "Ultra," this meticulously researched expose reveals how congressmen once conspired with Hitler - and why these forgotten lessons matter urgently in today's rising tide of extremism.

When Democracy Nearly Died in America

What if I told you that in the 1930s, thousands of Americans wore silver shirts emblazoned with scarlet "L"s, trained with weapons, and prepared for armed insurrection-all while a Catholic priest with 30 million radio listeners praised Hitler? This isn't alternative history or dystopian fiction. It's the buried truth of America's flirtation with fascism, a chapter we've conveniently forgotten but desperately need to remember. While Hitler rose to power in Europe, a parallel movement took root here-funded by Nazi Germany, amplified by members of Congress, and embraced by respected business leaders and intellectuals. We tell ourselves it couldn't happen here, but it already did. Understanding how close we came to losing democracy once might be the only thing that saves it now.
